RetroArch

  • Summary of the RetroArch GUI:
    • Main Menu (RetroArch icon) - Load Core, Load Content, Online Updater, Configuration File, Help, Quit
    • Settings (Gear icon) - Driver, Video, Audio, Input, Latency, Configuration, Saving, Logging, File Browser, Frame Throttle, On-Screen Display, User Interface, AI Service, Power Management, Achievements, Network, User, Directory
    • History (Click icon)
    • Import Content (+ sign)
  • My experience:
    • Rotate the phone to landscape.
    • It seems we need to click everything twice (except the top level: Main menu/Settings/History...) to enter the option.
    • The first row shows the RetroArch icon. Click on anywhere at the top row will return back to the previous level. Do not use the 'swipe' gesture. For example, if we are on 'Main Menu' and click on 'Online Updater', the word next to the RetroArch will change from 'Main Menu' to 'Online Updater'.
    • During playing a game, we can click the 'RetroArch' icon at the bottom to bring up the "Quick Menu" where we have options of 'Resume', 'Restart', 'Close Content', 'Take Screenshot', 'State Slot', 'Save State', 'Load State', 'Undo Load State', 'Undo Save State', 'Options', 'On-Screen Overlay', 'Video Layout', 'Rewind', 'Latency', 'Controls', 'Cheat'. 'Shaders', 'Overrides' and 'Information'.
    • During playing a game, we can click on the "Start" icon to pause a game.
    • Main Menu
      • Online Updater (a globe icon).
        • Core Downloader. Download the cores you need. You will see a symbol [#] next to the core we have already downloaded. See "RetroArch Starter Guide" for preferred cores for popular systems.
        • Update Core info files/Assets/Controller Profiles/Cheats/Databases/Shaders.
        • 'On-Demand Thumbnail Downloads' = ON.
      • Configuration File. Save Current Configuration.
    • Settings
      • Drivers. Video = gl/vulkan.
      • Video.
        • Scaling. Integer Scale, Aspect Ratio, Video Filter.
        • Bilinear Filtering
      • Input.
        • Port 1 Controls.
        • Hotkeys. This works if we have a controller/keyboard/mouse. See "RetroArch Starter Guide" for a list of useful hotkeys.
      • Configuration. 'Save Configuration on Quit' = ON.
      • Saving. 'Auto Save State' = ON. 'Load State Automatically' = ON.
      • On-Screen Display. 'On-Screen Overlay' = ON. 'Hide Overlay When Controller is Connected' = ON.
      • User Interface.
        • Menu Item Visibility. Turn off of the following: Show Explor, Show Favorites, Show Images, Show Music, Show Netplay.
        • Menu. glui -> ozone
      • Playlists.
        • Manage Playlists. We can change the default core or refresh/delete a playlist.
      • Directory. File Browser -> browser to the top folder of ROM files.
    • Import Content
      • Scan Directory
      • Scan File
      • Manual Scan (better than Scan Directory).
        • Scan Inside Archives: this will scan the files within the zip file, whether you want this on will depend on the system you are scanning. You will want this off if scanning arcade games.
        • Arcade DAT File: this is important if you are scanning arcade games.
        • 'Overwrite Existing Playlist'.

SD card formatter

SD card copy/backup

  • The 'SD card copier' from Raspberry Pi OS does not work for the JELOS shipped with RGB30. The error message is "non-msdos partition table on source"
  • The following commands works 
    # Assume the original SD card is /dev/sda
sudo umount /dev/sda*
sudo if=/dev/sda of=jelosRGB30.img bs=1M status=progress

# Assume the new SD card is /dev/sdb

Check my RetroPie version

How to check which RetroPie version I'm on?. It works (I am using v4.8, 2022 Mar 13); it matched with the information on the download page. However, the Raspbian version is 10 (buster) according to "/etc/os-release" so the Kodi is version 18 not 19. 

$ cd ~/RetroPie-Setup
$ git show

Another way is to run RetroPie setup program. See a screenshot How To Backup and Update Your RetroPie Image.

Exit a game

Press HotKey and Start button. Another way is "Esc" or "Esc + enter" on a keyboard. This helps exiting games from N64 where 'select' is not one of its buttons. Exit every Emulator with "escape" key and Setting the ESC Key as the Exit Emulation Button, ESC key doesnt Exit emulator

ROM

ROM size

On my 128 GB SD card du -sh /media/crucial/RetroPie/roms/* | sort -hr | head or ncdu ~/RetroPie/roms (interactive) shows the top folders taking most space

  • dreamcast: 24 GB (28 folders)
  • psx: 13.4 GB (111 folders)
  • arcade: 9 GB (2988 files)
  • fba: 8.2 GB (1350 files)
  • n64: 7.2 GB (470 files)
  • mame-libretro: 7 GB (2334 files)
  • gba: 6.3 GB (932 files)
  • segacd: 4.7 GB (23 files)
  • amiga: 3.6 GB (4280 games)
  • snes: 3.0 GB (3362 games)
  • neogeo: 2.8 GB (187 games)
  • TOTAL: 106 GB, 118649 items

Transfer ROMs

ROMS location

The SD card has 2 partitions: boot and retropie.

ROMs are located in retropie/home/pi/RetroPie/roms directory. 

$ ls '/media/brb/retropie/home/pi/' 
bgm  coolcv_mapping.txt  gunconf  RetroPie  RetroPie-Setup  v3

$ ls '/media/brb/retropie/home/pi/RetroPie/' 
BIOS  retropiemenu  roms  splashscreens

Backup/restore

https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Updating-RetroPie/#backup-option-2 (if you don't want to create a sd image you can just back up your BIOS, roms, and configuration files from the samba shares), or back up the /home/pi folder which contains lots of folders (bgm, Desktop, Documents, Downloads, gunconf, Music, Pictures, Public, RetroPie, RetroPie-Setup, Templates, v3, Videos)

(Update) The procedure below is not optimal especially the SD card is very large. I only need to back up the retropie/home/pi/RetroPie/roms folder. 

sudo umount /media/brb/retropie
sudo umount /media/brb/boot
sudo dd bs=4M if=/dev/sdc | pigz -4 > RetroPie-128g.img.gz

# Restore
gunzip --stdout raspbian.img.gz | sudo dd bs=4M of=/dev/sdb

This assumes the 2nd SD card is the same or has a larger capacity. For example if my source is samsung 128GB and the target is another samsung 128GB but a different model, I got the following error. 

$ gunzip --stdout RetroPie-128g.img.gz | sudo dd bs=4M of=/dev/sdc
[sudo] password for brb: 
dd: error writing '/dev/sdc': No space left on device
0+3763699 records in
0+3763698 records out
128043712512 bytes (128 GB, 119 GiB) copied, 3455.3 s, 37.1 MB/s

The fdisk command shows the reason: 

# source sd card (larger capacity)
sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdc
Disk /dev/sdc: 119.38 GiB, 128177930240 bytes, 250347520 sectors

# another sd card (a little smaller capacity)
sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdc
Disk /dev/sdc: 119.26 GiB, 128043712512 bytes, 250085376 sectors

Android emulation

Front end

  • Daijishou: on Retroid Pock 2, the resolution is not high enough so some options are truncated. How about scrcpy.
  • On Android:
    • Switch hotkeys mapping works depending on the controller
    • I cannot find a place to remap buttons in global settings or individual platform
    • I still need Android 'back' button to quit a game
    • Note Daijishou is still a front end. For example if I configure it to use Duckstation to play ps1 games, it still use Duckstation to emulate it. If I click the back button to quit the game, I can see Duckstation is in the list of last used apps.

SD card

When we insert an SD card, Android (11 and up) will offer two options

  • Use as portable storage - format it as exFat. We can use the card in computers. Some games won't work out in this format. But we can use a frontend to access the games on certain emulators. We can create a new folder called 'games' on the SD card. Then create other subfolders like 'bios'. After that copy game folders under 'games' folder.
  • Use as internal storage - only work in Android OS.

  • UI Settings. EmuELEC based.
    • ANBERNIC-SIMPLE-THEME -default. Does not show videos.
    • ANBERNIC-THEME can show videos. But the game names, videos & description are very tiny.
    • ART-NEXT-THEME is similar to ANBERNIC-THEME but no description.
    • ARTPIE-THEME uses vertical stripes; not a good choice on a small screen handheld. Forget it.
    • ES-THEME-CARBON looks good but no game names on the LHS. It only displays videos/images.
    • ES-THEME-EPIC-CODY looks good. However, it does not include a description. Note it has a Chinese interface. To switch to another emulator, use the shoulder buttons.
    • SIMPLECOMICBOOK looks good but the videos are smaller. The game names and videos are half half. It also a short game description (scrolling way) on the bottom right corner. Main screen is cool.
  • rg353vs is enough if you don't care much about N64, Sega Saturn and Dreamcast emulation (runs better on Android)
  • Anbernic RG353V Retro Arena Stable Preview
  • Hardware issues:
    • Sound from the speaker or 3.5mm jack does not work. However, USB-C to 3.5mm female headphone jack adapter and bluetooth audio work.
    • It cannot turn on nor charging while I was using Anbernic Linux OS (it shows 38% power). Hold on 'power' button or 'reset' button did not help. I opened the case and unplugged/plugged the battery connectors and that does not help. Fortunately just like my Retroid Pocket 2, after I have been charged it again for a while (USB power meter did not show any voltage at the beginning), the power LED turned on again (into yellow). When it turned on into Android, it shows only 3% power. I guess there is a calibration problem for battery with both Anbernic rg353v and Retroid Pocket 2 devices. PS: the charging speed is very low (5v 0.36a ~ 2w) when I connect it to my PC or power bank.

  • Wifi and Remote Services can be enabled from OPTIONS
    • Once Remote Services are activated, the device’s IP address can be accessed via a browser on a PC. This allows for the transfer of files.
    • Default username/password is ark/ark
    • There is a partition called "EASYROMS". ROMS should be placed here instead of 'root/roms' folder. Or we can use the Remote Services (see below) and http://IP:80 to manage ROMS.
    • The web interface powered by filebrowser is convenient when we enable Remote Services from Options in the main interface (next to PICO-8). Docker. Just open a web browser and go to the http://URL:80. It'll show the files under /roms folder.
